Beer Pours a dark brown with subtle ruby highlights. Nice 1 finger head with nice lacing left in glass. Aroma is of chocolate, caramel and a slight roasted smell with a nice pine and citrus hop aroma. Taste upfront is of pine and citrus hops followed by light roast, chocolate and caramel notes.

I understand form the menu that this is a blend of a couple of their standard beers, the porter and the IPA. I really enjoyed this offering. I found it unique and quite tasty. The hop assertiveness of this beer as a brown ale set it apart from most other brown I have had, nicely done.

Pours a dark brown color with a good off-white head and some light lacing on the sides of the glass. The nose brings forward a bit of the Cascade dry-hopping along with some slight roast from the Ramsey's. A bit like a brown IPA, though the hop presence isn't strong enough and the roast shines through a bit more. The same is true with the flavor, where everything doesn't quite meld. Medium body and a dry finish with some roast. Overall, fairly good, but each component sort of gets lost.
